Sauerkraut Latkes

Yes, really. Alex and I are making sausages with sauerkraut for dinner, and had half of a bag left over. Genius! So I threw it together (seriously, about 2 minutes), fried them up in some oil, and ate them up. I am glad I only made four because I could have eaten a whole lot more than the two I ate.

Sauerkraut latkes

1 c sauerkraut, drained well then squeezed between paper towels

1 egg

salt and pepper

2 T flour mix

oil for frying

Heat 1/4" oil in a frying pan. Combine sauerkraut, egg, salt and pepper, and flour mix in a bowl with your hands. Form patties, squeezing out any excess liquid. Fry latkes, browning well on one side, then flipping and browning on the other. Serve with apple sauce.
